warning about cough syrup and lozenges
| Thu, 11-20-2003 - 6:34pm |
I've been on SBD for a couple of months and I've lost 25 pounds. The other day I started to feel really sick so I bought some Nyquil type syrup and some throat lozenges. I woke up yesterday with one of the worst headaches I've ever had, I almost wanted to cry. So on top of already feeling congested and my throat hurting, coughing and blowing my nose, I had this horrible headache.
I started thinking about it, and realized that's how I've felt the couple of times when I've cheated and eaten something with refined sugar in it. I looked at the label, and there's a ton of high fructose corn syrup and sugar in those things.
So I just wanted to let you guys know so you don't have to get even sicker like I did.
Robitussin makes a cough syrup for diabetics that has no sugar and no alcohol. It tastes like they put some licorice flavoring in it, I just tried to throw it down the back of my throat without tasting it.
